When looking at recipes, the trick is just changing the way you think, and just replacing the unhealthy parts of the recipe with a more healthy alternative.

For example.

Peanut Butter Cookies.

Instead of using the traditional PB, replace it with NPB. Additionally, replace the refined white sugar with a artificial sweetner (you are comfortable with) that can be used in baking. Replace the refined white flour with a whole wheat flour (stoned ground wheat flour). The traditional ingredients like, Baking soda/powder, vanilla, eggs (and the alike), are okay to use.


Just a sec, I will get my sweeties recipe book on how to make Natural Peanut Butter Cookies and post it....... :)

Traditional Natural Peanut Butter Cookies



1 1/2 cups Stoned Ground Wheat Flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt (OPTIONAL)

1 cup Creamy or Chunky Natural Peanut Butter

1/2 cup "Smart Balance" Butter (same type of fats that are in NPB)

BROWN SUGAR--ELIMINATED

1/2 cup SPLENDA granulated baking type

1 large egg

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract



Preheat oven to 400 degrees

In a medium bowl sift to combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt


In a large bowl beat together natural peanut butter, "Smart Balance" butter, and Splenda until smooth.

Add in egg and vanilla

Combine flour mixture with natural peanut butter mixture, scrapping the sides of the bowl to insure batter is well blended.

Cover bowl with plastic and place in frig for 20 minutes

Using a teaspoon drop batter 1 inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.

Using a fork make crisscross pattern flattening cookies slightly.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes


Best regards,

who has the recpie for those little PB protein "balls" that you don't have to cook?
 
Thanks Chillen. I've tried some recipes with wheat flour, but it seems to be a bit gritty. Can you replace 1/2 of it with oat flour?

Yes, pure Oat flour is fine.

By the way, you could also add Natural Peanut Butter in the Oat Bar Recipe that you used before (just a thought, and yep this ROCKS TOO, he, he). :)

Hope you are having a great day!

Actually I did add some NPB to the recipe and it was better. Tasted more moist.

Am I ok if I eat maybe 8-10 of these a night with nonfat milk?
 
Rickster, I have a recipe treat for you! :)

He, he, he! :)


Natural Peanut Butter Pie:​

EDIT: 1 (8 oz package) No Fat Cream Cheese (removes the sats and LOWERS CALORIES, but leaves comparable taste)
1/2 cup of Natural Peanut Butter ( I use the Smuckers Brand)
1/2 cup of Skim Milk
1/2 cup of Splenda
Sugar Free whipped topping

They now make a Spenda version of Graham Crackers--leaving just the grains and some minor bad ingredients in the crackers.

Take one package and crush with a rolling pin in between wax paper.

Use "smart balance" butter, and warm about two tablespoons in a small sauce pan.

Put the crushed splenda graham crackers in a pie pan, and add the "smart balance" butter. Mix good, and spread evenly in the pie pan.

Mix, the NPB, Skim Milk, and Splenda real good by hand. Put in pie pan.

Top with Sugar free Whipped Cream.

The NPB is the largest calorie producer in this NPB pie. Has good fats, no sugar, and can satisify a sweetness craving.

EDIT: After making this it needs to be in the fridge for about 1 to 2 hours to harden a bit.........

Best wishes

This recipe was terrific! I've had others try it and they have no idea it's not unhealthy. Also, my brother-in-law, who is diabetic, loves it...
